We've found out more about our freight. Unfortunately, the documents haven't yet been sent from our office in the UK. The lady working on our case had collapsed in the office Tuesday, two weeks ago. It was found to be caused by a mass on her brain. She was operated on and the mass was completely removed. Assuming the results are OK, she is expected to be discharged either today or Wednesday and she will send the Bill of Lading off immediately with Fedex.
In the meantime I have been contacted by the shipping agent in the UK who told me that they had a way of getting our effects released, even without the original documents. However, that will only be possible once they have received full payment for the delivery. Something else that has not yet been done, for the same reason the documents are still in the UK. If I would make the transfer of nearly 1000 £, the shipping agent could send a message to the port in Lomé, which will hopefully do the trick. But I first want to check with the lady in hospital, so that we don't pay twice. So, communicating with Brenda, is what we need pray for now.
